Super Mario is one of the biggest names in gaming. The first game in the franchise was 1985's Super Mario Bros., a game that is credited with helping the gaming industry recover from its two-year crash that began in 1983. The Super Mario series still has an important place in gaming today, largely thanks to Nintendo's ability to continuously innovate the platform games.
